Sett vs Gragas

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Sett controls lane pressure by forcing melee trades and denying Gragas's passive sustain window.
Focus on using grit trades and (E) stun angles to prevent Gragas from safely short-trading or disengaging.
This is a control vs teamfight matchup where Sett must leverage early agency to disrupt Gragas's burst and displacement.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades with autos and (E) to keep Gragas pinned and build grit before landing a centered (W) for max damage.
Punish Gragas immediately after he misses (E) to capitalize on his lost engage and escape.
Avoid using (W) when Gragas can easily sidestep; instead, bait his mobility or (R) before committing to all-in.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (E) is up, as it can stun and disrupt your engages or escape.
Avoid extended trades when Gragas's passive sustain and (W) damage reduction are available.
Respect (R) displacement threat post-level 6, which can interrupt your all-ins or reposition you into danger.

Early game

Start aggressive levels 1-3 by engaging with autos and (E) to build grit and threaten (W) true damage.
Avoid extended fights where Gragas can reset health with passive; instead, force quick brawls near minions for (E) stuns.
Use wave control to keep Gragas close and punish any missed (E) attempts with grit-backed trades.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to reposition Gragas into your team or force brawls where Sett excels.
After first bruiser item, increase aggression as your (W) shield and true damage make trades harder for Gragas to contest.
Respect Gragas's level 6 (R) displacement, maintaining spacing to avoid being isolated or knocked into unfavorable fights.

Win conditions

Win lane by forcing melee trades with (E) stuns and grit-powered (W) bursts to deny Gragas's short trade pattern.
Use (R) after Gragas commits or to isolate him for follow-up kills or teamfight advantage.
Apply side-lane pressure post-level 6 to force Gragas into unfavorable fights or lose farm under tower.
